Chess is a game played between two opponents on opposite sides of a board containing 64 squares of alternating colors. Each player has 16 pieces: 1 king, 1 queen, 2 rooks, 2 bishops, 2 knights, and 8 pawns. The goal of the game is to checkmate the other king. Checkmate happens when the king is in a position to be captured (in check) and cannot escape from capture. Its really an ancient game played by Kings. You are lucky if you also play this thing and waste your time. Oh! Come on, it takes a lot of time and brain. But if you insist, here it is.

The current form of the game emerged in Southern Europe during the second half of the 15th century after evolving from a similar, much older game of Indian origin. Today, chess is one of the world’s most popular games, played by millions of people worldwide at home, in clubs, online, by correspondence, and in tournaments. The game is played on a square chequered chessboard with 64 squares arranged in an eight-by-eight grid. At the start, each player (one controlling the white pieces, the other controlling the black pieces) controls sixteen pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent’s king, whereby the king is under immediate attack (in “check”) and there is no way to remove it from attack on the next move. Theoreticians have developed extensive chess strategies and tactics since the game’s inception. Aspects of art are found in chess composition.

Chess Game FAQs

Here are some common FAQ’s relating to Chess.

How do I “Castle”?

Click and drag the King to its destination. The Castle (Rook) will automatically move into position. If you have moved the King but can’t seem to “Castle”, you have not met one or more of the conditions of “Castling.”

What is “Castling”?

There are two Types of Castling, King’s side and Queen’s side. Both types allow you to move the King toward the corner, bringing the Castle (or Rook) around the King toward the center of the board.

How do I get a Rating?

You must play “Rated” games to get your own rating. To play a “Rated” game, click the Menu button in the lower left corner of the board, choose “Game” and then “Play Rated.” Perfect Chessmate will help you begin a rated game with a few questions.

How do I set a time limit?

Click the “Menu” button in the lower left corner of the board, then select “Game” and “Clock.” You may select an infinite amount of time per player, or define the total time each player has to move. There are three types of clocks to use:
Hourglass
Fischer Time
Minutes per Game

Can I surrender to my opponent?

Yes, if the game looks as though you will not be able to win or draw, use the surrender button on the front edge of the board.

Can I call for a Draw?

Yes, by using the Draw button on the front edge of the board.
Draw by 50
If 50 (fifty) consecutive moves are made by each side without either side taking a piece or moving a pawn, the game is a draw.
Draw by Lack of Force
Game ending that results from neither chess player having sufficient pieces to mount an offensive against the other.
Draw by Repitition
Game ending that results from the same board position being played on three consecutive moves.

I am having trouble with how the pieces move?

A note to remember when moving your pieces is that only the Knight can jump over other chess pieces when executing its move; all other pieces are blocked.
Also, Capturing Moves for all pieces, except the Pawn, are identical to their Board Moves.

King Movement
The king can move one square in any direction (an exception is castling). The king may never move into check.Queen Movement
The queen can move any number of squares in any direction — horizontal, vertical or diagonal — if her path is not blocked.Bishop Movement
The bishop can move any number of squares diagonally if its path is not blocked.Rook Movement
The rook can move any number of squares vertically or horizontally if its path is not blocked.Knight Movement
The knight moves in an “L” shape, jumping two squares horizontally or vertically and then moving one more square at a right angle to the original direction. The knight is the only piece that can jump over other pieces.Pawn Movement
The pawn moves straight ahead (never backward) and captures diagonally. It moves one square at a time, but on its first move has the option of moving two squares. The pawn also has special abilities for promotion and en passant.

Can I get help with suggested moves?

Yes, by clicking the MENU button in the lower left corner of the chess board, then click GAME, and TUTORIAL. Select the checkbox “Computer automatically suggests next move.” The move suggested by the computer will be highlighted in yellow.

The computer opponent is too much for my abilities!
